Where to begin! I'm a live...... NO, I haven't fallen in a hole somewhere while junking, but it sure does seem like it. Especially, with my lack of blogging the past weeks. This summer is flashing before me like a dream. Popsicles, sunbathing by the kiddy pool, and Junking!

I have so much I want to share with you all! We have been junking like mad. Stocking up for the Junk Bonanza and our Harvest Market. Junking Rule No. 1 - NEVER go far from home without a trailer. Thanks goodness we spent Friday afternoon unloading it! We headed out early Saturday morning to a sale. You never no what to expect. It was a good sale. Lots of competition, but we held our own. However, what made the day a huge success was an invitation by an older man to stop by his building after the sale. So, when we were finished and all loaded up, we followed this guy quite a ways to his storage building.

The storage building wasn't huge, but it was hiding lots of good junk!! It was not organized. Everything was piled on top of each other. When you moved one thing, you revealed another. It was like Christmas morning for us junkers! It was a tough decision, but here are my 5 favorite finds:

We had a blast. The adventure is such a huge part of junking and an adventure we did have. More tomorrow....maybe even a giveaway!!!!

The surprise project might be something for yourself, home, or garden. It’s not everyday that you get to enjoy a good surprise! A junkin good time will be had by all. We still have a few spots available here are the details:

This past Saturday I went to one of my dearest friend's new apartment. When I walked into her living room my eyes immediately were drawn to the mantle where 3 of these beautiful frames were sitting. Now, I usually like all things old and try not to buy new accessories, but I am loving these vintage inspired photo frames by O'brien Schridde Designs.

The distressed, weathered, vintage look has had me dreaming of these frames for 4 days now. I have been pestering my poor friend to send me the link to their website. There was no way I could NOT share these beautiful handmade designs with you. An investment they are, but when they hold precious memories of family...priceless I say. So, here is the link to O'brien Schridde Designs. I hope you enjoy.

Oh ya, how about a big WOO HOO for summer!! Hot days and Cool junk is what its all about this summer at Old Crow Farm. Happy junking!
